This page is to discuss about the scrapbook.

Hi, has everyone started on their scrapbooks yet? I'm about halfway thrrough, maybe like 45% done.
~Ryan

I have already pasted 7 pages out of 26 pages of my scrapbook. I will still have 10 pages left after I finish pasting all but I haven't pasted any photos.
I still have not pasted the 8th page onwards because I asked my mum if the statements on 8th and 9th was ok but she says it is repeating the 7th.
~Claudia

You know, I keep looking at my scrapbook so I'm actually quite sick of it now...
~Ryan

Ya, actually me too...
~Claudia

And I just keep having that want to finish the scrapbook, but when I really am doing it, I feel extremely bored and keep needing a break... I wish I had already done it!!!
~Ryan

(Junk) This is also a chatroom! (Real stuff) I have not asked my father for the photos
~Claudia

And I just can't remember to take a photo of myself in my scout uniform! (sigh)
~Ryan

Ya I have to get some pictures for my scrapbook. I have asked my father already. Put them on powerpoint but haven't choosen.
~Claudia

I edited a bit of my scrapbbok by drawing backgrounds(I will show you if you don't understand). My father also (FINALLY!) printed out my uniform photos.
~Ryan

Haha (The way you said your father FINALLY printed it out) I still haven't choosen and printed out my pictures!!!
~Claudia

Well, I still got like 6 more pages to go to finish the irritating scrapbook...
~Ryan

I think I've got it almost done, just that I have to cut out some stuff and paste. And I still need more photos! (I am going to draw some, but...)
~Claudia

So good for you... I feel as if I will never get it done!
~Ryan

I almost completely forgot about it, it was under a pile of stuff on my table.....and whenever I feel like doing it, I will always feel like not doing it at the same time...(I mean, I've got something else to do as well)
~Claudia

Exactly. I feel one side of me grumbling "DO IT!" while the other side shouting "NO!".
~Ryan

That's about the same feeling. I just did it just now. The half that said "do it!" won (need to finish it by next Thrusday)
~Claudia

Extremely extremely luckily for me, that happened too. By the way, when is next Thursday? 21/4/11 or 28/4/11? If it is 21/4/11, then I'm dead meat. :(
~Ryan

Nex tthrusday is 28/04/2011 (kind of obvious, lol)
~Claudia

"No" won just now so I am on the comp. It was saying something like: You know, you've got to shower now cos later you have your favourite show and you won't want to miss it, so don't do your scrapbook now!
~Claudia

Haha... Same for me here. It said: Go bathe, Ryan! You just HAVE to watch that "Courage the Cowardly Dog"! Don't you remember how funny it was? And before that, DO YOUR VOCAB!!!
~Ryan

Haha...That's so funny I practically rofl...the amotshere was so serious I didn't dare (though I wouldn't even if it was not serious, just lol and not stopping)
~Claudia

Well, I just finished my scrapbook (Sat 23/4/11). Actually it was pretty silly at the end, because after the page with the Da Mu Zhi comic I just put "This is your gift" (in Chinese of course) and a Art and Craft english book at the bottom in a Made-of-Paper Pouch (I will show you if you don't understand). And then for the next page I put "Another gift! :)" (in Chinese of course) and a few sticker sheets at the bottom in another Made-of-Paper Pouch. Then there were two more pages. The second last page, without thinking, I put "Bye bye" in Chinese and all that. So I was REALLY stuck with the last page. I ALMOST tore it out because my mother stopped me at the last minute. What do I do with it? Any suggestions?
~Ryan

I thought you were supposed to leave some pages blank for your buddy to write? I am not sure so I don't know.
Anyway, the 'do it!' side won just now. Cos I have nothing else to do anyway.
I am just left with a few photos (to ask my dad) and one more thing which is:
I have done my introduction, what about yours? (wo yi jing jie shao wo zi ji le, ni ne?) and a smiley face at the bottom.
Hey and you said something about a gift. Maybe I should do that, if I have time, with one more page and be left with 4 pieces of paper blank.
(For my buddy to write, if he/she is supposed to) If not I'll tear it away (I don't care)
~Claudia

Well, what do you mean by "supposed to leave some pages blank for your buddy to write"? I thought my buddy is supposed to write in his OWN scrapbook and give it to me. And BTW, why did you want to write the ":I have done my introduction, what about yours"? How is he supposed to do his introduction on YOUR book???
~Ryan, really confused. So did I do it correctly or not? Please tell me what I did wrong if I am wrong.

Okay, okay, now I am VERY confused. You are meeting the teacher on Tuesday right? Why don't u ask her about it then.
Maybe I will write: I am very happy to meet you, and I hope we will have a memorable time together!
(wo hen gao xing jian dao ni. wo xi wang wo men zai yi qi shi hui you wo bu liao de shi guang!)
Is that better? And for them to do their own scrapbook to give to us, I don't know...
~Claudia

Okay, I will ask her if we are supposed to leave some pages blank for my buddy to write.
~Ryan

I have four pages that are not finished. Am I dead meat? Touchwood.
Three of four is the photos that I need and the last one is the gift.
~Claudia

Well, you should finish by today, Wednesday 27/4/11. BTW, I still got the one page left! I really don't know what to do with it, now that I have already written the "Goodbyes" and all that. Any suggestions? (Please don't suggest making a small pouch and putting a gift in it because I have already done that.) And as for Claudia, what do you mean by"Touchwood"?
Oh and how about the rest of you? You should also be done by now.
~Ryan

I left one page's photo. My father already sent it to me so I just have to copy and paste, print it out, stick.
By the way, Dara said that we should leave some pages blank on Tuesday.
'Touchwood', as in I won't be dead meat.
I am SOOO super duper excited! But we need to wait till the exams are over...
~Claudia

Exactly! Silly exams! The only nice thing about exams is seeing you and your friends' marks... And BTW, it was good that I had left a page blank.
~Ryan

??? What do you mean???.....................................silly exams...............why must they come before ...............why must there even be exams.............we will have hbp...........................cos we have lots of stress
~Claudia

I mean that good that I had left a page blank for my scrapbook.
~Ryan

Oh. I thought you meant something else. But why? Teacher said that you had to?
~Claudia

Well, I think I forgot the actual reason, but I remembered that many of you had left a page or a few pages blank so I did too. I forgot whether Teacher asked me too. And remember that Friday, Claudia, when the teachers showed our parents the photos of our gifts to our Nankai Buddies on powerpoint during the meeting?
~Ryan

Ya, so? And we were LingOL when teacher showed the performance to our parents. By the way, for the performance page, I put that nobody in my house knows that I am performing. Well, nobody except my parents (though I am not sure if they really know what we are performing)
~Claudia

Yeah, I was sitting at the back seat and when they showed the pictures, I turned back and smiled to you.
~Ryan

Exactly........................................................................Hey, there's really nothing to talk about, so we probably can just talk junk......
~Claudia

Isn't this already junk? By saying "Isn't this junk" is already junk. And now what I've just said is junk. And that is junk too. And this. And this. It will never end! (that was junk too)
~Ryan

Haha. I have found a way to end it! Just say 'This whole message is junk'! Voila! Isn't it great to finally find a way to say it?
~Claudia

Okay, I shall not type anything cause that will count as junk. (Don't count this!)
~Ryan

Haha, I guess we turned the whole wikispace into junk (except the first parts --where there was real discussion)
~Claudia

I count this as interesting, very interesting stuff now.
~Ryan

Hahahahah (lollollollol)...............Umm.............you mean the junk?
~Claudia (Justin said: 'Yay! Torchwood! Plants Vs. Zombies!' to my comment about touchwood.) By the way Justin, I said 'touchwood' not 'torchwood' (DO NOT REPLY, JUSTIN!)

HAHAHAHA! Almost fell out of my chair laughing. The funny part is, I also thought what Justin thought!
~Ryan

What was so funny?! And what do you mean you also thought what Justin thought? Which part? The whole thing?!
~Claudia

About the "torchwood" thingy!
~Ryan

You thought that I said 'torchwood'? Or what? And what is torchwood anyway?
~Claudia

Torchwood is a plant character in the game "Plants v.s Zombies". And yes, I thought you said Torchwood.
~Ryan

Oh.......................................What is 'Plants v.s. Zombies' about??
~Claudia

Basically, you just need to kill zombies. You start with only very few plants, then as the level gets higher you will unlock better and better plants and at every 10th stage of each Level (like 1-10, 2-10, 3-10 and so on, because 1 Level consists of 10 stages which are like 1-1, 1-2, 1-3 and so on) you will get this conveyer belt where they give you plants for free. That stage is really fun! In the middle of the game, this person called Crazy Dave will introduce you to a shop where you can buy zombie killing stuff such as some plants which you can only buy at the shop to get, lawn mowers, and so on. Something like that. It seemed REALLY REALLY fun at first, then it got more and more and more and more and more and MORE boring.
~Ryan

That's about the same with everything else. When you were younger, you will find it fun to wake up early. Now you find it tiring. Some games I played (e.g. Pet Society) were fun at first. Then they became boring. Facebook was fun at first. Then it became boring. Almost all games are like that. (Even boardgames!) And so is Poptropica (When you don't know what to do and you have finished the easy islands) Even Monopoly, well.......almost everything!!! (Except that Cluedo was a little more fun, but I don't really play it anymore)
~Claudia

Hey, that's exactly what I feel!
~Ryan

...I don't mind read, you know! It must be a coincidence. I can only mind read numbers, but of course with a special method.....and I am sure other people find it the same, too.
~Claudia

Well..., Facebook was fun at first, but it became more boring and more boring and more boring and....(10000000 times) and poof! It was abandoned. Then i came back..like...lets say...a million years later...and i found Backyard monsters....like...10 years after listening to everybody talking about it....then continued playing wild ones after a million and 10 years (and 1 extra year)....and Facebook was fun again! THE END
